    I've had the SS version as well as the titanium nano for several years now. I got the 5" titanium right when it came out. I took it on a 4 night trip through Alagheny and it was perfect. Very light and I could cook a steak on it with minimal wood. I now keep the stainless one in my car. I use it with a trangia burner for car camping. The nano is a permanent fixture in my cook kit. Firebox makes wonderful stoves.

    Fantastic review! We are pretty big fans of the Firebox stoves.. they are certainly “leave no trace” not to mention a great survival tool. It doesn’t take a lot of effort to get enough wood to keep it burning for hours. We have been using the Titanium 5” for about 2 years now and it has yet to let us down. Enjoy! Cheers!

    I love my SS version and I never realized how versatile it was until I really made an effort to bring it out more often. It still is super heavy though. Just not sure if I can stomach the price tag for the TI right now. But one day she will be mine. Oh yes, she will be mine. Great vid Wade. 👍👍

    Yummmm. I have both the 5” and the nano in SS. I bought them a few years back and just love them, since I car/tent camp I don’t worry about weight and these things are so well built they’ll probably last a lifetime. I am getting the Scout though, just couldn’t pass out another brilliant design by Steve. That steak looks perfect!

    I'll answer before watching LOL - yep - I am in love with this stove. simplicity, diversity, and awesome engineering. I waited until the titanium to buy, since I already owned the nano and was loving it - but now so glad I finally bought G2 TI and won't leave home without it. wood, tangia, solid gel, and gas. adjustability, variety of setup, yep I'm sold.
    so now to watch the video hoping you agree(which I'm 99% thinking you will). oh and thanks again for your review on the stainless one. as I commented on that vid, it helped me make the choice of getting the TI one or not. 👍 from me Wade

      @@Woodswalker1965 yes my nano will still be used in several situations but the G2 has already slipped into my 'must be with' when out of the city for any reason. It may even take the place of my BioLite 2 setup in some emergency situations even if it can't generate power, especially in a weight/size restricted situation.

    I already have a steel firebox, same as you. I just wish it was lighter. I didn't know if I should get a titanium grill grate, or if the meat would stick. I also didn't know if I could get a good sear on the meat without the heat retention of the steel. I think you did well on both parts, so I'll get the titanium grill grate. Thanks for the great video that answered all my questions!

    😂 the most frequent answer was steak😂 i am not surprised.
    I like them both. I am watching a stove called the bushbox xl since a long time. Its very simular to the firefox. There are stainless steel and titanium versions too. I think they are built in Germany. The price always kept me from buying until now. Its expensive in my opinion. But it gives many functional options too. And fun. Hmmm... Maybe one day. Thanks Wade, take care friend

    Titanium has no advantages other than weight.
    Stainless steel has the best heat transfer power in cooking. It is especially good for keeping food warm. an oven effect.
